The failure of the officials of the Illi-
nois Central railroad to fulfill the ex.
pectation that they were to visit Yank-
ton during their western tour has arous-
ed apprehensions in the minds of many
that there is unpleasant significance in
this neglect. They have definitely laid
out their Little Sioux line, extending
from Sioux Falls, via Cherokee, to Ona-
wa, on the Missouri river, and have
failed to give promised attention to
their westward extension. This may be
reserved for after consideration. 1t is
however, much more satisfactory to oo-
cupy front seat on such occasions.

The convention held at Huron during

ON CLEANING WOOLENs.

Experiments made in Germany on
the best method of cleaning woolens
have led to the following conclusions :
First, the liquid used for washing must
be as hot as possible; second, for the re-
moval of greasy dirt, sweat, &C., borax
is of so little value that its application
would be mere waste, and, though soap
I've is better, the preference must be
given to soap I've along with ammonia,
a mixture which works wonders by
quickly dissolving dirt in particular
parts which are hard to cleanse, raising
and reyiving even bright colors third,
that, on the other hand, for cleaning
white wooden goods there is nothing
which even approaches borax-soap I've
and borax, applied boiling hot, give to
white woolens looseness and dazzling
whiteness which they often do not
possess when they are new; fourth, if
shrinking is to DE entirely avoided, the
drying must be accelerated by repeated
ly pressing the wooIens between soft
cloths. In no case should the woolens
be dried in the sun, as they become dry
and hard, they being best dried in o
moderate current of air, and in cold
weather in warm place, but not too
near the source of heat. In the above
experiments all the various degrees of
heat were tried, from the hottest to the
coolest temperature all the favorite
cleaning materials were also employed
soap, borax, ammonia, benzine and
mixtures of these.

ANOTHER OF KENOSHA'S GAL
LIANT SOLDIERS GONE TO
THE GREAT HERE
A IvrTrIl

Col. D. G. McVean died at Jefferson
Barracks, Missouri, on Monday morning
last, the 10th inst. COL McVean re-
sided in this city number of years be-
fore the war of the rebellion. He was
by occupation printer, and had large
circle of acquaintance. He evinced
talent as a newspaper writer, and, in
company with Isaac d. George, in July,
1857, established a newspaper in this
city called the Kenosha Times. The
paper was not actively partisan, but con-
Quoted with moderation and ability, and
stood well with the reading public. Col.
McVean, at the close of the first volume
of the paper, having other engagements,
relinquished his connection with the
Times. On the breaking out of the war
he was among the first to express his
readiness to volunteer in defence of the
Union. A company of infantry was en-
listed, in which w. E. Reed and other
citizens of this place were active helpers.
d. G. McVean was elected captain OF the
company, which was the first in the
state to offer its services to Governor
Harvey, in April, 1862, and was the first
accepted for the war in Wisconsin.
This company joined the First Regi-
ment of Wisconsin Infantry under Gen.
Starkweather. Col. McVean made an
excellent record while in the army for
bravery, losing leg in battle. After re-
firing from the. army he was given by
the Government the responsible position
of the care of the military post at JEFF
ferson Barracks, Mo-, near st. Louis,
which place he continued to hold up to
the time of his death.
He was married before the war to
Miss Mary Lock, of this city, young
lady of more than ordinary mental en-
dowments, and we'll remembered here
as a successful teacher in the Grammar
department Of the public schools.
Col. McVean had been in the practice,
in later times, of visiting Wisconsin
every year, at the time of the annual
gathering of the Wisconsin Union
soldiers, and enjoyed meeting the war
veterans. Those who saw him here last
year, accompanied by his wife, while on
his way to Milwaukee, in good spirits
and apparent health, little thought it
would be the last occasion of his greet
ing the friends who had been permitted
to return alive from the battle-felds OF
the South.

is THE USE OF TOBACCO IN.
CREASING?

The opinion was expressed in the
TELEGRAPH few weeks ago the use
of tobacco, especially chewing, was on
the decrease. This was regarded a
wholesome symptom of the advancing
progress. But reforms in useless
habits and expenditures, to speak of
nothing worse, move strangely slow.
A news reporter for the Chicago
Journal recently interviewed tobacco
dealer, and if the answers received a1e
correct then what has been said in
this paper in respect to the falling off
of the use of tobacco, we are sorry to
say, is entirely at fault. The reporter
received replies from the tobacconist
as follows
"Tobacco-chewing," said he, sis in
creaslng right along. We sell more
chewing tobacco now than we ever
did. | can safely say that 60 per cent.
of the entire male population of Chi
cago chew tobacco more or less. Prob
ably so per cent. of these are regular
chewers. What / mean by regular
chewer' is a man who is never without
a chew-only removing it long enough
to eat his meals and sleep. Look at
the hundreds of new brands of tobacco
put on the market within the last few
years. Why, some eight or ten years
ago there was only about two kinds of
plug and one or two grades of tine-cut;
now we have hundreds of brands and
qualities of plug and fine-cut, and some
twenty-odd kinds of combination TO-
bacco-chewing and smoking. You
can readily see from this how the
chewing habit is spreading. what
kind is used most?' Well, can't say
it's about an even thing now; former
ly the plug chewers were in the major
ity. Plug toOacco is mostly chewed
by the laboring classes, because it's
cheaper. Fine-cut is used nearly alto
gether by the weather. class of chew
ers, the principal reason being that it's
cleaEer-not that the tobacco itself is
cleaner, but the practice of biting off
a chew is avoided. Chewing is as
strictly American as the game of base
ball or poker"

A TOO COMMON DEFECT IN
PUBIC SPEAKERS.

Attention has often been called to
the fact that large per cent of edu-
Gated men, who have studied for the
professions by taking a college course,
have one defect in their education.
This lack is quite as observable in
those who pursued course of stu@ies
for the ministry, for the reason the
minister is most heard in public as
semblies. The deficiency referred to
is the lack of Evolutionary training,
particularly voice culture. The human
voice is as capable Of being cultivated
for speaking as for vocal music. Of
what is the special benefit for the
student to gather great storeo Of learn
ing for the public use in instructing
others unless he has the ability to i'm
part it acceptably to his hearers :?
There are habits of speaking On the
platform and pulpit which render it
difficult for the nearer to understand
the sentiments expressed without pain
full effort. This seldom comes from
the natural defects Of the organs of
speech. but in great majority of cases
the difficulties are of a kind that can
be overcome. 1t is great discomfort
and annoyance to listen to a speaker
who has well digested and instruc-
tive discourse, but whose indistinct
utterances are only half ineligible.
The chief fault of the class Of speakers
referred to is the want of clear enun-
citation. If the vowel sounds are not
clearly articulated, the reading or
speaking is defective. Two little at
tention is given by teachers in our
public schools and certainly too little
in the seminaries of theological train
ing. Much better would it be for the
theological student to omit part of
his studies of the dead languages and
devote the time thus saved to the train
ing of the voice and the art Of public
speaking. Unless he has the mastery
of that most potent power for stirring
enthusiasm and moving to action his
influence is much crippled. A dis.
course or address of twenty minutes,
delivered with we'll trained voice, is
more effective and accomplishes more
in twenty minutes, than an Indifferent
ly delivered address of forty minutes,
however talented.
